Student Projects (copyrighted material © IISc/CST~CPDM/MM)

The following list are projects on ‘Sustainability Understanding, Evaluation and Forecasting’ chosen and completed by students as part of the course on ‘Technology and Sustainable Development’.

Note: In each of the projects below, the  simulation results (Sustainability Forecasting) needs to be carefully discerned – all variables in the graphs seem to be represented on the same scale of (0 ~ 1) zero to one, but in reality each variable trend varies/occurs within their respective minimum and maximum attainable values/units – represented on the zero (minimum value) to one (maximum value) scale. Hence the trends of every variable is representative of their respective ranges and NOT to be interpreted for absolute comparison with another variable/s.

However, trends exhibited by each variable is attributed to the causal relationships in the entire system, influenced by the impacts and trends of other variables’ in the system.
